Subject: [PATCH 3/3] kref: introduce __kref_put_lock macro

This patch introduce the __kref_put_lock macro to easily write a
kref_put_lock functionality based on refcount_dec_and_lock functions.
Existing per lock type specific kref_put_lock functionality are updated
to use the new __kref_put_lock macro.
